Unlock the door to your imagination and spend a day in Wonderland!

These playful designs will give you an understanding of what to expect when using different icing consistencies to layer and add dimension. We’ll jump into colors, patterns, and designs to discover how they work together to bring your creative visions to life.

Each whimsical cookie showcases a different background style on a large 6 x 3 ½” cookie canvas. We want to be “curiouser and curiouser” about royal icing and how it works, and we will uncover new ways to create by combining elements. All these techniques are versatile and fun to use for any cookie set.

In this fast-paced, 4-hour class, we will learn how to:
  • Use different royal icing consistencies to create layers
  • Pipe fine details and line work
  • Create realistic wood grain with royal icing
  • Paint fondant and gum paste flowers and frames
  • Add depth with powdered food colors
  • Work with edible lace to enhance the design
  • Learn to paint with metallics
  • Make royal icing transfers using templates
  • Incorporate wafer paper details
  • Work with cookie moss to create more texture
  • Understand when to use printed details
  • Use stencils for texture and design
  • Play with scale, pattern, and color

*Be sure to have a workable knowledge of outlining, flooding, and basic decorating techniques. We will jump right into decorating.*

All items for class will be provided! You will take home a box set of your 4 decorated cookies, a swag bag of goodies from my wonderful sponsors and me, a class packet with instructions and templates, access to additional video instructions, and new cookie friends!

So excited for this class and can’t wait to see you there! Don’t be late to our very important date!
